Chapter 2
"I don't even know why I need this stupid counseling session; it was their fault to begin with!!" The red haired and currently very pissed off teen growled out as he sat on the couch, legs crossed and arms resting on the top of the sofa. The counselor just took a glance at him before staring back at the papers which Lavi suspected were his records.
Well, Lavi felt that didn't have anything to worry about, after all, his record had all along been clean till the recent fight. And even if he did cause trouble, nobody would really put any blame on him, if they still wanted their school funded by the Vincents that is.
The white haired counselor named Allen Walker sighed as he placed the paper down. Lavi closed his eyes. Has Allen reached the verdict? Is he off the hook? Is he going to……
WHAM!!!!!
Lavi jumped with a loud yelp when Allen suddenly slammed down a bunch of paperwork in front of him, some of the paper happily floating down slowly due to the counselor's action. Lavi blinked when a piece of paper landed on his lap. He picked it up and widened his eyes.
"Hidden records based on your past offences, I managed to dig up a lot of dirt on you. It wasn't easy but still it's on black and white." Allen muttered moodily as he sat across Lavi who was scanning the long, LONG, list of offences. "Blowing up the chemistry lab, bringing home another class's pet and even stink bombing the girls' changing room, Lavi, if you aren't supposed to be here I must as well send you to jail." Allen ended the conversation by throwing the paper onto the table carelessly.
"You'll be coming here everyday after school for at least a three hour session with me. Any other offences will just lead you to spending more time here so please don't do it. Also, according to Tyki, you lose the free will to pick which group you'll be in for his class. He'll be picking the group for you so good luck with that." Allen informed Lavi as he walked over to pour orange juice for both him and Lavi. Lavi's bored expression changed to pure horror at the Tyki part as Allen set the cups down. "Yeah, his way of punishing you."
"Yay, to the first day in school." Lavi muttered miserably as he took a gulp of his orange juice. Allen chuckled lightly as he leaned back against his seat and calmly sipped his juice.
"By the way, another person would be joining us shortly, so please, behave." Allen emphasized on the last word hard as he took a glance at his watch. "I wonder why we have so many violent people in school these days."
"Hormones?" Lavi guessed with a shrug. "By the way, you're younger than me so you have no right to say stuff like you're an adult and working." Lavi smirked at the smaller, whose eyebrow twitched a little at the comment before lowering his cup.
"I agree to the younger part. But I already had my degree and I am working, thank you very much." Allen smiled darkly at Lavi who choked at his statement.
"You're kidding? Is that why you have so much white hair like an old man?!" Lavi exclaimed loudly. Allen felt a bunch of arrows stabbing him in the chest at the older boy's statement. "Must be a pain being like this when you're so young."
"You should hear yourself talk more, you insensitive creep." Allen snapped back with a glare that could murder Lavi if it wasn't harmless. Allen's ears twitched slightly at a far away sound coming from outside the room before he sighed. "Looks like our other company is here already. Lavi, please lower your head for a moment."
"Huh?" Lavi asked at the awkward request as he did what he was told. A second after Lavi lowered his head, the door was whammed open. Apparently, the person had kicked the door open with tremendous force as the door was separated from its hinges and flew towards Allen and Lavi, narrowly missing the top of Lavi's head and the side of Allen's cheek, only stopping when the wall obstructed its flight across the room.
"W-w-what the hell?" Lavi blinked in shock at the destroyed door in front of him as Allen emptied his juice. The white haired boy placed the cup down and smiled forcefully at the new comer.
"Welcome, you must be Kanda Yuu." Lavi turned hesitantly to see the new comer. His eyes widened at the person who took a step into the room. Long wavy midnight blue hair tied neatly into a ponytail swayed as the person walked beautiful dark blue eyes and features that were to die for. Though the person's chest was kind of flat, she can still pass for a very beautiful girl in Lavi's opinion.
Lavi's Book: HOT GIRL!!!! STRIKE!!!!!!
"Oh my god, you're so my type!" Lavi leaped forward and stood in front of the new comer, who raised an eyebrow at him, looking extremely annoyed for some reason. Allen just watched the interaction in silence, interested about the outcome. "From your features, you must be Asian, no? Let me be perfectly honest with you, you're the best and hottest looking girl I have ever seen!!"
The girl's eyes widen for a second before it shone like Hell's fire with fury before she grabbed Lavi's shirt. Allen burst out laughing while Lavi panicked, wondering what he had done wrong. Regaining his posture, Allen coughed loudly, clearing his throat.
"Lavi, Kanda's a male." Lavi's eyes widened as he narrowly avoided a punch that was targeting his cheek.
"MALE?!!! WHOA!!!! This is the first time I've seen a pretty boy!!!" And that would have awarded Lavi a punch in the gut if the red haired had not somersaulted behind Kanda and took a few steps to conquer more ground. Lavi smirked when he got a frustrated growl out of the 'pretty boy'. "Aaaww, you having periods now? So sorry."
With that and a mischievous wink, Kanda charged forward while Lavi got into a fighting stance. Just as Kanda was a feet away from Lavi, a hand grabbed onto the back of Kanda's collar and another on Lavi's collar. The two boys blinked before yelping in surprise when they were pulled apart. Allen closed his eyes as he went to wash the now emptied glasses.
"Thanks, Marie." He sighed tiredly as he rinsed the cups at the sink. Lavi and Kanda blinked before turning to see a huge man with a frown on his face looking down at them. Lavi raised an eyebrow when he noticed the man was not really looking at them. He raised a free hand and waved it in front of the man to see no reaction from him.
"Yes, he's blind." Allen helped Lavi confirm his assumption. "But he knows his way around and he's another counselor here. You might have to see him when I'm not around." Allen said before he sat back down and opened a file from the pile of papers. "Thanks a lot, Marie. I'll handle it from here."
Immediately, both boys were dropped onto the couch like a bag of potatoes. Kanda cursed a little while Lavi rubbed his sore behind. Marie just chuckled at the sounds he was receiving from them.
"Looks like this year is going to be a busy year for you, Allen." Marie commented as Allen sighed tiredly. Marie smiled warmly at him before patting his shoulders. "Good luck."
"Are you two dating?" Lavi asked out of the blue, causing Kanda to look at him like he popped out a head from nowhere, Allen and Marie just gave him a deadpan look.
"Yeah, I need a lot of luck." Allen muttered after coughing a few times as Marie just nodded sympathetically to him before returning to his desk. "Now then, we'll begin. Yu-"
"Kanda." The Asian grounded out irritably. Allen blinked before he nodded, acknowledging the long haired male didn't want to be called by his first name. Lavi raised an eyebrow at the boy sitting next to him, curious.
"Why not Yuu?" Lavi poked, receiving a glare from Kanda but the two turned back their attention to Allen, who again coughed. "Need a cough drop? You've been coughing a lot since I came in."
"I'm fine, no worries." Allen assured as he closed the file he was holding. "The two have started a fighting spree or something? First, Lavi at the courtyard and then Kanda at the Arts class. Could you one by one explain the reasons for your actions? Lavi, since you're so eager to speak all the time, why don't you start first?"
"Are counselors to speak in a way as if they want to start a fight with the counseled people like what you're doing now?" Lavi questioned, not very happy or willing to talk about something that Allen himself already seem to know in full detail. Allen smiled with a smirk.
"Because a fake smile and concern isn't what you want, right? Those people make you seem inferior, as if they know how your mind works and they already know the solution to 'petty' problems. I see you as my equal, so even if it's not professional, it's better than talking to a person wearing a mask, right?" Allen answered honestly with a genuine smile, but in his eyes reflected the determination and willingness to accept any challenge that comes his way.
"Fine, I got into a fight with blood relatives of the principal over accidentally throwing my project paper at them. Need I to go to the office and broadcast my reason so I don't have to repeat my reason over and over again?" Lavi challenged back but gained a chuckle from Allen with a shake of the head for his answer.
"Kanda?"
"The teacher tried to make me where a Victorian dress." Kanda grumbled out. Lavi and Allen stared at him idiotically; even Marie peeked out from his stack of paperwork. Kanda's eyes twitched angrily. "Arts class project: Do a scene from Shakespeare's plays."
"I don't see what the problem is. You'd fit in perfectly." Lavi mused and dodged the punch that came his way. "You are after all quite feminine."
"Lavi, stop being suicidal, Kanda stop it or your counseling session will double." Allen warned, but couldn't help but secretly agree with the red haired's opinion. Kanda could very easily pass for a female. Allen would have considered him a female if he had not read his records first.
A knock at the door and entered Tyki, looking amused at the two people being counseled. Allen greeted him while Marie nodded in acknowledgement. Tyki greeted back, while ruffling Kanda's and Lavi's hair roughly with a big grin on his face.
"Get your fucking hands off me!!!" Kanda growled and Tyki mockingly scared, backed off.
"What on earth are you here for?" Lavi's eyes narrowed suspiciously at Tyki's happy mood. Tyki's grin widened and Allen shook his head with a chuckle. What on earth were this two planning?
………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Hamsters?" Lavi asked, with a tone that suggested that he thought this was lame, and judging from Kanda's expression, he thought so too.
"Oh come on." Allen joined in as he picked up a cute little brownish dwarf hamster and cuddled it in his hands. "It makes the lesson and project more interesting, don't you think?"
Apparently, to make the class seem out of the ordinary, Tyki decided to bring in pets, hamsters. Each student will have their own hamster and each group will have a cage for their hamsters. Seems like Tyki had decided to put Lavi and Kanda in the same group, with three others they'll get to know during the next lesson. They'll observe the hamsters and also think about ideas they can do for the project from the hamster or anything learnt from their habits.
"I personally think Kanda should go for the little one there." Tyki pointed at the lone hamster sitting quietly at the corner of the cage apart from the other hamsters, eyes closed and minding its own business. "And I think Lavi should go with this one." Tyki then pointed at the hamster that was stupidly ramming its head against the cage. "Since he's kind of suicidal and really asking for it."
"So true." Allen agreed with a strange smile as he watched the hamster continue to ram its head while Lavi howled his disagreement in anger and Kanda smirked at Tyki's opinion. Suddenly, Allen's eyes caught something.
"Tyki, isn't that hamster-" Allen was about to ask when Tyki placed his index finger on his lips. He winked secretly at Allen before asking Kanda and Lavi about their choice. Allen was surprised Kanda took the same hamster Tyki pointed out for him. Lavi, chose the hamster that was running about the wheel and to the bottle every once and then.
"I wonder whether he knows that one's the pooper." Tyki whispered into Allen's ears as Lavi took his hamster in his hands. Allen's eyes went wide at that.
"You're not going to tell him?"
"Well, seeing that he threw my instruction paper away like it was crap, I believe I want to have my revenge. And you know my family, if we take revenge, we will do it hard." Tyki smirked evilly before he pulled out three fingers. Slowly, one by one, the fingers went down.

"HOLY CRAP!!! It shat in my hands!!!" Lavi yelled but his hands still curled around the hamster, not letting it drop out of his hands. With its eyes closed, it was as if the little rodent was having a good time in Lavi's hands, doing its little business.
"See, Allen. You can see a good subtle example of an S&M relationship between the master and pet." Tyki whispered amusingly as Lavi howled in anger when the little hamster decided to add water into its business. Lavi quickly dropped the hamster back in the cage and ran out of the room, slowly followed by the other three males, who didn't see the rush of going to the restroom as fast as Lavi.
"I want to change my hamster." Lavi growled behind grinded teeth as he washed his hands in the sink.
"But it suits you perfectly." Tyki joked, sidestepping to avoid the soap bar thrown at him. "Besides, no more changes anymore. It's my call."
"……a hamster just did its nature call. Twice. On my hand. And you're still not letting me throwing your instruction paper away go?"
"Yup."
"I hate you so much."
"Compliment accepted."
"They'll be with you for a year, hang in there." Allen teased Kanda, who glared at him heatedly.
"I don't need your petty concerns, Moyashi." The older snapped before storming out of the restroom. Allen blinked in shock for a moment before his eyes narrowed dangerously after Kanda.
"Oh, I am so beginning to understand Tyki's way."
………………………………………………………………………………………………
"I'm home." Allen pulled at his tie as he kicked off his shoes and walked into the living room. A giggle that reminded him of wind chimes was heard from behind the couch, causing him to smile.
"How're you doing?" Allen cooed before he jumped over and landed onto the couch's cushion, causing the other person sitting on the couch to giggle even more.
"You're late." Allen turned around to see a beautiful golden haired woman with scars on her face leaning against the kitchen counter. Allen bowed his head in apology.
"I'm so sorry about leaving her with you, Miss Klaud. It seems like from today onwards, I'll be spending a lot of time at the Counseling center."
"Not surprising. No matter how much we drill into the teens' head, they still take drugs, have sex, get pregnant or have anger management problem." Klaud grumbled as she poured a glass of orange juice for Allen and passed it to Allen, whom accepted it gratefully before downing the content into his throat. Klaud looked at Allen for a moment and sighed.
"You don't have to worry. I'll look after Emilia for a longer time if you're needed at work." Allen smiled gratefully at the golden haired woman before turning back at the cheerful little baby who was staring back at them with huge adorable eyes. Allen's eyes softened.
"It's just hard, Miss Klaud. I already am only able to see her for a few hours, day and night together. I'm afraid one day I might not be here at all for her." Klaud shook her head. Sometimes, Allen needed to act like a regular teenager. The one that don't get into trouble that is.
"I'm sure she knows how you feel." Klaud whispered as Allen moved forward to cuddle the little baby, who squealed in reply.
"After all, she is your daughter."
